Review: Austerlitz by W.G. Sebald


Listen Later

This week we review Austerlitz, a somber, thoughtful novel that examines the trauma of being a holocaust refugee.  Yes, it's an Eyad pick.
This is the second book in our series The Im/possibility of a New Home.  Last week we discussed Yuri Herrera's Signs Preceding the End of the World.  Next week, we'll have an in depth discussion of Austerlitz.  The last book in our series will be Otsuka's The Buddha in the Attic.
